    Trail of Tears was a series of forced relocations of Indian nations in the United States following the Indian Removal Act of 1830. The relocated people suffered from exposure, disease, and starvation while on route, and more than four thousand died before reaching their various destinations. The removal included members of the Cherokee, Muscogee, Seminole, Chickasaw, and Choctaw nations, from their ancestral homelands in the Southeastern United States to an area west of theMississippi River that had been designated as Native Territory. The phrase "Trail of Tears" originated from a description of the removal of the Cherokee Nation in 1838.
